In the comments, many heavy machine operators admitted that they love engaging with kids. An operator wrote, “When I’m plowing in a bobcat at a nearby hospital I see kids wave to me all the time and I lift my boom, and tilt my plow back and forth. Like the machine is waving at them. They also get so happy and it makes the parents smile. Love it.” Another person commented, “As an operator, I can tell you, kids coming to watch run these machines or touch the equipment, makes my day.”

Many people also shared how they are still fascinated by construction work. An Instagram user wrote, “Not going to lie, I still love big equipment as an adult. I totally get that big grin on his face. I’ll never turn down a chance to run a bobcat or lull or front end loader. An hour on a tracked excavator would make my year.”

Someone recalled, “Once when I was a child One excavator operator let me in his machine. What a feeling that was. I wonder where that uncle is today. Lifelong memory.” Another person wrote, “Me, a 28-year-old guy, still stops and watches an excavator anytime I can. They are sooo cool. Most of my toys growing up were heavy equipment. Those toys made me choose mechanical engineering.”
